OPEN DAYS 

Make the Most of Open Days 

Open Days give you the opportunity to tour campuses, attend presentations, speak with staff and students, and gain insights into the programs and courses different institutions offer.

Immerse yourself in-person 

In-person events are vibrant, interactive experiences where you gain a real sense of an industry or institution. You get to collect brochures, participate in hands on activities, and have face-to-face conversations.

Start Early

Visiting Open Days from Year 10 helps you choose senior subjects including prerequisites. If you’re in Year 11 or 12 start visiting now.

Attend Many

Going to multiple institutions events lets you compare their campuses, cultures, and courses, which builds your confidence and decision-making skills and empowers you to make well informed choices. 

Cover All Bases

Having plenty of time to thoroughly check places out or visit them multiple times is important if you change your mind about what or where to study. 

Visit Virtually

Live online events mean you can explore careers and courses from wherever you are and engage with presenters in Q&A sessions or by using the chat. On-demand options allow you to access and revisit content at your convenience.
